LMPH7 Slim Table Lamp

Worlds Away has been making furniture and lighting in Memphis, Tennessee, since 1992, with a style it calls transitional glamour: the meeting point of mid-century modern and Hollywood Regency.

Hand-applied finishes are the brand's signature. Hand-painted tole, gold leaf, carved wood, lacquer and carefully inset mirror panels give Worlds Away pieces a luminous, layered quality. The catalogue covers furniture, mirrors, lighting and decorative accents. The company believes a room should feel collected rather than decorated, and its pieces are designed to add character without overwhelming a space. There is a Southern warmth to the collection, balanced by clean, metropolitan lines that keep it from feeling fussy. A Worlds Away lamp beside a mirrored piece, or a lacquered accent in an entry, gives a room an easy, confident glamour.
